Escalator - Tahiti 80

Coming down the escalator

I think saw you

it’s been a while but of course I remember

it was the face i knew

I’m walking off the escalator

and I don’t have a clue

where to go now, I can only

remember how I lost you

You looked a little older,

I felt just like an actor looking for a line

I’ll pull myself together

it’s gonna take a while to get you off my mind

I don’t wanna go there (oh no!)

I think about it but I know i really gotta move on

couldn’t we start over (oh yeah!)

I really wanna try it but it’s never gonna happen

Here

I am up on the platform

feel like I’ve just seen a ghost

I want to stop and give it some thought

but it’s too late, and you’re through the gate

Time for me to jump on the train

I’m being pushed by the crowd

who knows you might come back again

tomorrow I’ll get up earlier

Back when we were younger

thought we had it all and were going the extra mile

I’ll pull myself together

it’s gonna take a while to get you off my mind

I don’t wanna go there

(oh no!)

I think about it but I know i really gotta move on

we could be better lovers (oh yeah!)

I really wanna find out but it’s never going to happen
